Simon was truly an amazing performer. He was 100% engaged with the kids even though some kids were challenging, he handled it perfectly. He surprised us with his tricks and the use of live animals. After the 1 hour performance I had payed for, he did not stop there. He walked around the tables entertaining the adults...that was special. My daughter was very happy with him and we will certainly keep him in mind for future hiring. I totally recommend him. Thanks Simon for a memorable day!!!

Simon did a fantastic job entertaining our 6 year old daughter and her friends. He had them laughing often. We all enjoyed his tricks which are fun for adults as well, and he hung around afterwards to make balloon animals. He really gave it his all. Great person, great show.

We hired Simon to perform magic and do balloon characters for our six year old daughters birthday party. Simon was a true artist. He was in touch with me before the day of the party. Was patient and talked me thru my anxiety. I was planning this party outside and it had rained all week. He arrived early and interacted both the adults and the kids before his performance. During his performance the kids were engaged. He was very good with the kids and even invited them by name to participate in the magic show. They were in awe and laughed the entire show. My daughter has found jewels throughout our house since the party. She is convinced Simon left them. Downside we were so busy we didn't take pictures!

We absolutely were delighted to have Simon join us for our sons 8th Birthday party. He was very flexible, very amicable and very professional. His magic and illusions here top notch, he was
WONDERFULLY engaging with the kids, and every child and parent told us how much they thoroughly enjoyed the show. A bunny, and dove, and lots of other impressive tricks - the adults were asking me for his info for future events. Simon stayed and did balloons and talked with thmemorable and evwm had a special magic kit for our birthday boy. THANK YOU SIMON, for making LIAMS birthday so memorable!
It was amazing! Kids laughed a lot which made the party worth!
Thankyou Simon!

Simon arrived on time and was ready for the kids, did some tricks with the adults, card stuff and started on time. Some of his tricks were really fun, others not very attractive to kids. Maybe it was a tough audience but the adults seemed more interested sometimes. That was until he pulled a bunny out of his hat and got everyone's attention. Very cool. After finishing, he did a really nice trick with a coin for my daughter. Very impressive. Do I recommend him? Yes, he knows what he's doing. Not fantastic with the audience but definitely knows his magic!

He did and ok job. He seemed overwhelmed and not very prepared.He really didn't do a lot of tricks he did the same one over and over again.

Response from Simon Magus Magic:
Without exaggeration my cost of props and equipment,(not including skill, expertise and training)provided for this magic show came to a little over $10,000 ($10,236.00 receptively). The show included various magic effects involving comedy and major child participation.
Arrived one hour early and upon request started 15 minutes early.
Balloon twisting was provided towards the end at no additional cost. Stayed an extra half hour and continued balloon twisting at no additional charge as well.
All of the previous unsolicited reviews describing professionalism, competence, and comportment may be looked at too. Sincerely Simon

Great magician! Our event was on site at a Elementary School. He showed up early, as punctuality is very important to us, and had everything set up well in advance of the 3rd and 4th grade students arrival. The after-school director was not too pleasant, so Simon ended up using his witty humor to defuse the situation. Once he got going, the whole class, including staff, was mesmerized and entertained! He not only performed some great magic, he had us constantly laughing. I will say this, it was my sons birthday. My son is very shy and quiet. He doesn't have a lot of friends and struggles socially. This small event made a HUGE impact on my son, not just mentally, buy socially! He started interacting by getting involved, and the other kids started interacting with him. This made his birthday extra special and we truly grateful for having met Simon. Thank you 1000 times for what you did for us!! We owe you a lot more than what the fees were....

From the beginning of the planning I was looking for entertainment for my 3yr old son and his friends at my baby shower. I was on a budget so I needed to make sure I found quality that was affordable. Simon was flexible and worked with me on price.
Once we booked he was deligent with making sure he had all the information and everything so there would be no issues on event day.
He showed up professional with lots of stuff to show. He asked for my preferences and I told him to just go with the flow, and find a way to get the kids attention. He proceeded to make ballon animals which was an instant hit, they all gravitated towards him and he then proceeded with the show. All the adults were very much intrigued by his magic as well. He was so great with all age types (we had it all). He was also original and had a good sense of humour. To top it off he had a real dove and a real bunny. That did it for the kids, and even adults.
By the way, I booked Simon for 1hr. He hung around and was just so pleasant for what felt like 2hrs. The kids didn't want him to leave so he stayed till they felt satisfied.
I would definitely hire Simon again. I even got a few people asking me for his info already!
What a great show!! Thanks Simon.

Simon was great at the Cub Scout banquet last night. He was able to engage the children and make them a part of the act. They all seemed to enjoy themselves and adults were laughing as well. Our theme was recycling and he was able to incorporate that as well into his act. We would highly recommend him. He was great.

If you're ever looking for a great magician, Simon is the way to go. His magic act was incredible! Not only did the kids love it but the adults as well. I definitely would recommend him to family and friends. Thank you Simon!

Simon was such an amazing performer and it was such a treat to have him share his talent with us. His sense of humor really livened up the performance. All the kids and adults were following him around for the three hours he stay'd with us. Definately calling him again for future parties. He was unique for us because he wasnt all cartoony like some other kids magicians. He had that Magician vibe that old timey magicians did at kids parties back in the 70's and 80's. I hate that most kids magician these days are more clown like or dress up like fairies. If we wanted a clown. Thats what we would have looked for. Simon is the real deal. Hire him if you want everyone entertained. All ages. His show breaches the age gap, wowing everyone 0-100. And yes. He does do balloon animals too if thats what you want added. But really.. Just let him do his thing, he'll knock the wind outta you with his talents!
